Watched the #Netflix doc about #Madoff last night. Very well done, compelling stuff—everything a crime documentary should be.

One thing that I think it whiffed a little on, though, was how many people in the finance industry *knew* Madoff was dirty, long before he got arrested.

I worked in finance, in a large bank that was a landing place for people getting out of the Street I-banks, right through the worst part of the 2007/08 financial crisis and the Madoff arrest.

Pretty much anyone who had come from Wall Street knew who Madoff was, knew he had a hedge fund, and that it was sketchy.

Where people seemed to differ was in what *way* they thought it was sketchy. I don't think most people thought it was a straight-up Ponzi—it had been around too long, and conventional wisdom was that "Ponzis don't survive market downturns" (e.g. the Dot-com crash).

#JPMorgan keep popping up for me this week as I’ve just watched the #Madoff series on #Netflix. Actually it’s #JPMorganChase isn’t it now I think. https://mastodon.social/@GottaLaff/110119836778390923

@informatik
will there be any healthy adults left by the end of 2023? Diabetes & heart issues will be de rigueur by then if not already

these lies can’t go on forever

all of this reminds me identically of #Madoff & the #netflix #documentary is a worthwhile watch; thought i knew but omg it was even crazier than what news covered

hope they do a #sarscov2 doc someday b/c we knew all we needed by 2021-2022 but are suppressing #sciencefacts for #greed

Recommandé : la série télé documentaire « #Madoff, le monstre de la finance » (sur Netflix). Tout ce qu'il faut savoir sur cette gigantesque escroquerie qui a duré des dizaines d'années, et pour laquelle Madoff a bénéficié de l'aide de pas mal de gens qui, eux, n'ont pas fini en prison.
Très pédagogique et détaillé. Évidemment pour une série Netflix, l'accent est mis sur le rôle des individus plus que sur celui du système.

>> Con-men are distinguished from mere liars, like #HershelWalker, who will easily tell transparent lies just to look better than they are. Also distinct from fraudsters like #Madoff or #ElizabethHolmes, who are drawn into a chain of lies to hide their fraud. >>

I’ve just finished watching the #Netflix #Madoff documentary: what an extraordinary - and appalling - story…

Here is more Culture Club for your pleasure…

Netflix’s docuseries Madoff: The Monster Of Wall Street left panelist Karissa gob smacked. The riveting four-part documentary explains how Madoff got away with what he did for so long… and what happened when it all came crashing down. #MadoffNetflix #tvtime #GPCDCultureClub #MadoffTheMonsterOfWallStreet #Netflix #Podcast #podcasts #PopCulture #Madoff

Watched #Madoff on #Netflix last night, I knew most of the story of course, but it’s MINDBLOWING that he got away with it as long as he did.

I could’ve never slept a wink had I built my whole life on a lie, knowing full well it was only a matter of time before it all came tumbling down, but then again, I’m not a sociopath, at least…I don’t think I am 😉

#Madoff: the Monster of Wall Street. “Everybody said:”Why would Bernie Madoff commit the largest fraud in history?” “ Madoff answers:” You have to understand one thing. The one thing every one of them was - which is everybody in the industry- they’re greedy” #fraud #ponzi #money

Acabo de ver que han estrenado en Netflix la serie de #Madoff ;Id preparandoos para el lavado de cara que le van a hacer a otro timador y que servirá de ejemplo a seguir para miles de tarados en internet y cryptobros.

Started season 2 of #EmilyInParis.

Also watched the first episode of #Madoff on #Netflix. He decided he'd rather be a liar than a failure. Bad choice right there. There is NO shame in failing.

This happens when you rely on centralized entities controlling all your money, these monsters create themselves #Madoff #Bankman #FTX and are pampered in this system as long as they are useful to whomever benefits from them #SEC #wallstreet

The #Bernie #Madoff series in #netflix is very well made and definitely worth your time.

This Madoff doc (which has way too many re-creations for my taste) definitely doesn’t show the SEC in a good light. And it puts the media under the spotlight too. Watch it if you can. #Madoff

Att: Anyone who has watched #Madoff
Is it one episode of telling us who he is and how he ripped people off, followed by three more episodes?

#WasntGripped

I suppose that, after getting interested last year in all the #crypto #ponzi #scams during the last year, it was inevitable I'd watch the new Netflix documentary on Bernie #Madoff!
